On their Instagram account, Laura Ellis and her family share the day-to-day experience of operating Mt. HopeFarm. Laura's parents also farm with them and being exposed on IG has been an experience they needed to get used to, but have adjusted. A great example of following them has been their recent grape harvest. They have documented how they take such care raising, testing and then harvesting the grapes at just the peak time for eating. And they walk their viewers through their method of getting the grapes to the grocer as quickly as possible so their consumers have the freshest grapes possible at the peak of flavor. A fifth generation farm family on Laura's husband's side, they also are third generation on the land. The family also produces fruit spread and suggests recipes for all sorts of good eats and drinks, including the fabulous Autumn Apple Whiskey Sour! Technology has played a huge part in making a family farm successful by connecting the farm directly to the end consumer. In particular, consumers can easily go from Instagram to the website and even to the exact recipe because Laura uses Link Tree for the consumer's convenience.

Serafina owner of It's a Boring Life and It's a Boring Life cafe, also owns a farm in - yes really - BORING, Oregon. Now for the journey. Our host, Sarah Marshall, actually grew up in the area and can relate to the life. A joint venture between Serafina and wife, Jennifer Johnson, Serafina started her career raising lots of money for non-profits. Starting a chicken farm to take wholesome chicken nuggets to the public, they started from a knowledge base of nothing. But it took off exponentially and sold in 2018. Serafina took over as CEO for about a year, then they decided to move and chose to go to Oregon to be closer to Serafina's family. Landing in Boring was close to family even though they had said "never again" to a startup, they eventually got back into building a business. They're sage advice to budding entrepreneurs: Make a large margin on your product or else you'll be raising money to get it off the ground.

Anna Hendricks' website introduction says it all, " My cakes and pastries are botanically-inspired, hand-crafted of the finest seasonal ingredients and decorated with Natural Flourishes". This business is a collision between a florist and a baker and a sculptor. Of course, even with these works of art, COVID has had an impact, specifically wedding business. With large gatherings not allowed, weddings have been postponed - and so have wedding cakes. So Anna has pivoted her Sweetheart St. John's, Portland business. She had to ask herself how she connected and got customers in the beginning. She knew how to bake incredible edibles, but didn't know any marketing techniques. So she went back to her roots - pastries - but a new way to deliver. She now has a CSA-type model, delivering pastries to homes in the Portland area and is making it through the summer, and through the lockdown.

A varied background lead Amy Thompson to her food brokerage business, Full Shelf Foods. Starting as a cheesemonger, an amazing way to "learn about food" according to Amy. Talking with the consumer face to face and constantly sampling the goods and looking for new flavors gave her a great on-the-ground beginning. Cheese means talking about the entire chain, cow to process and all the agriculture in between. And cheeses come from all over the world. It gave her a tremendous understanding of putting great food on the table. Residing in NYC, she has come to find unusual foods most interesting and taking them to new markets and new consumers is her passion. Milk products seem to be a specialty, she has branched from cheeses to specialty ice cream with her recent client on the west coast. Right now, she is growing her client list, then growing her team and territories.

Chile oils and peanut sauces, typically only served fresh, have been been engineered to be sold with a great taste in the store by Lisa Douangphoumy, of Sao Noi. Another student of our host, Sarah Masoni, Lisa and her mother, Marney, came to Sarah and the OSU Food Innovation Center to become one of the first peanut butter sauce brands to be sold in a grocery store cooler. The name is Lisa's mother's nickname, which in Laotian literally means "little girl". She was the youngest of eight siblings, so the family is everywhere around the globe. Marney met her husband in Hawaii and started a restaurant there, then came to the Pacific NW in 2006. Lisa has kept the connection with the Pacific NW outdoor beauty and keep the natural taste and genuine ingredients to reflect that nature. Getting started was the hard part. Her mother made some terrific noodles and created some chile oils to go with them. An employee suggested contacting a supply company to distribute it and after a lot of hard work, things began to take off.

Frenzied, running three businesses simultaneously, Faith Dionne lost track of some of the basic things in life, including family. So J-A-Z stands for Jack and Zoe, her children. It was a deliberate move to get control of that balance between business and life. She started a healthy candy bar company, Bees and Beans, in 2010 that she subsequently sold, so Faith is an experienced entrepreneur, growing the company naturally and steadily and then exiting. Then the move to JAZ, not all that distant from Bees and Beans, using the local and natural environment to inspire a new food offering. Faith grew up in a forested area, engaging nature and JAZ Spirits embraces the native foods and spirit to distill and produce the liquors. Currently, the company produces a line of gins that embrace the great northwest and its ambiance.

Aspiring chefs are hungry not only for good food, they're hungry for information and education. Yes, there are culinary schools - although fewer today than a couple of years ago - but they are localized and structured. What every aspiring student needs is a mentor, and Justine Reichman, founder of Next Gen Chef does that to the Nth degree. Pretty much the pastime of her family, connecting people was a natural thing for Justine to do. Her foundation is built on the philosophy of "it's not what YOU know, it's how you surround yourself with people who do know". She uses LinkedIn, speaking engagements and is part of the Founder Institute in the East Bay, which has a huge source of mentors. And Justine is always recruiting, encouraging our hosts to apply as mentors! The great part is there are so many people who want to help others that when a mechanism such as Next Gen Chef exists, it becomes a magnet. But why food? Justine explains that she was in Mexico City with her partner and not able to take a job. A chance encounter with someone who offered help with her Spanish connected her with a group that helped people grow organic foods and be self-sustaining. And like all good organic things, it grew from there.

Found alongside the road and 24 hours from death, little Manny stole Cindy Anderson's heart and so she took him in and got him healthy. However, a few years later, Manny began having seizures, and Veterinary doctors couldn't seem to stop them. Cindy's degree from Oregon State University was in dietetics and nutrition, plus an MBA drove her to believe that Manny's diet was the cause. Taking Manny to a clean and natural diet stopped the seizures within a week. AH HA! It hit Cindy that she should start a company aimed at sharing products for those seeking a cleaner diet, especially those who were gluten-intolerant, like Cindy. And another big event in Cindy's life: Breast cancer. She is now a cancer survivor and whether or not the clean and natural diet was the cure or helped the cure, Cindy lives what she teaches.

Paul Fuller started Sweet Creek Foods the long way. He was looking for a job and the opportunity that popped out was refrigeration. He built a cooler for one farm, started building and installing walk-ins for other farms and continued to fix them. So when everybody got new equipment, he had to start something! He had been in the back room of all the farms and he and spouse Judy had been canning all their lives, so it came together to start Sweet Creek, canning local fruits and vegetables. But they don't really do canning, they do "glassing" only glass containers. They like the concept of offering co-packing/canning for small runs of whatever is in season for local growers. And since Paul started by buying used equipment and fixing it up for a fraction of new equipment, he was able to start the co-packing plant for a song and offer his cost savings to their customers. Everything from tuna to apple sauce to pickles, everything is local and keep our small farms alive. Good for them.

Paula Phillips is President of Kombucha Wonderdrink, a 20-year old maker of kombucha "discovered" by Tazo Tea co-founder Stephen Lee when on a trip to Russia. He fell in love with the fermented tea and then discovered all the health benefits of this prebiotic drink. The prebiotic part is a vegan based fiber that complements the probiotic - good bacteria - already in the body. It's food for the gut, in layman's terms. Available now in flavors such as ginger, pear, watermelon and other flavors, the company has worked hard to create a refreshing and tasty beverage that is great for your health. And though kombucha is fermented, there is no alcohol in the drink, so no problems raising your children on it. Luckily for our hosts, samples were sent to their homes, since we are interviewing remotely during the lockdown, and you can hear the rave reviews in the show!

Our special guest on our Anniversary Show! Kelly and Adam Calabria co-founded Kelly's Jellies and Hillary is the official head of operations but the unofficial head of keeping the ball of yarn from unravelling. It was Great Aunt Danny's recipe for habanero pepper jelly that turned into holiday gifts. Not an easy recipe to make let alone at the commercial level, the friends and relatives raved about the holiday jars they received and begged for more. When they offered to pay for the jelly in between holiday gifts, Kelly and Adam knew they were on to something. But, same old story, going from kitchen to the grocery store shelf has a lot of steps involved to keep the magic of the original delight. They began with two children, making 36 jars a night in their own kitchen. The company now uses a co-packer to keep up with demand, and it is still tricky to keep consistency and color correct. Local ingredients and fresh peppers are part of the secret and that's a high standard for many manufacturers, but that's what has separated Kelly's from the pack. And spicy foods and condiments are growing as a market, which is good for the Calabria family.

A Portland, Oregon native, Lola Milholland's Umi Organic fresh ramen noodle dishes started with a workshop. She took a week long noodle making tour with other ramen noodle companies and was hooked on the idea of providing the best noodle making kits people could make fresh in their own homes. Most people don't realize what a creative space ramen noodle making can be. There's a limitless amount of ingredients that can be added, and taking the organic angle is very new. Raised in the culture of grocery stores, Lola's parents were involved in the food business and she spent much of her after-school time stocking the refrigerated goods and salad sections of a store; so she knows the business from the backroom. Lola studied the Japanese language in school and bent toward the culture and food. She blended that with the farm-to-school movement early on when moving back to Portland. It was program that connected the farm meals with the local food producers and Lola took that early experience and mission into forming her company. And her team is impressive, including experience in Wall Street banking and startups, and growing the largest organic farmer-owned cooperative.

It's about hospitality. Literally. The Senegalese word Teranga means hospitality and Nafy Flately imbues the word in her products. All the juices and snacks, super foods all, come from a variety of ingredients, but mainly from the Baobab tree, which is considered the "tree of life" for all the incredible levels of nutritious ingredients it offers. In Senegal, baobab is a natural remedy for many ailments. It has more Vitamin C than oranges, more magnesium than kale, more potassium than bananas, more calcium than milk and is high in soluble fiber. Whew! In fact, one of the bottles of juice or one of her snacks is really a meal, which can make a trip to the grocery store faster. Which has also made for an interesting wrinkle during the pandemic: Teranga has built up enough consumer awareness that people have been ordering her foods, picking them up or even getting local home delivery. Makes sense. Nafy got the inspiration from early memories of her Grandmother using the Baobab fruit to make snacks and juices for the grandchildren and when her family moved to the US, she and her mother continued the tradition.

Health issues often are the impetus for founders to look for healthy, nutritious new foods, and that is certainly the backdrop for Amy Colville's story. Going through a very stressful time, Amy started uncovering new knowledge and kept track of how certain foods were making her feel. Then she had her "aha" moment when her plant-based milk snapped her into shape almost instantly. She started producing commercially after an R&D period and in 2017 she was rolling. Her manufacturing and warehouse operations are in Portland, Oregon. And her branding was easy. She wanted an alternative spelling of "milk" and "mylk" worked. And when she put the "A" in front, it spelled her name AND stood for "alternative milk" as well. Must have been predestined.

A Farmer's Market, Portland Oregon, "neighbor with our host, Sarah Marshall, Heidi Lovig is a chef on a mission. Living in Cambodia for a few months, Heidi fell in love not only with the people, but feeding them as well. Shopping with the women, cooking over an open fire and feeding nutritious meals - especially to the children - became a special place in her heart. Returning to the Pacific Northwest, Heidi recognized that the abundance of delicious natural ingredients would offer her the opportunity to continue that passion. She enrolled in Cordon Bleu and studied the gluten-free, dairy-free diets that she admired. She freelanced with restaurants helping them develop vegan options on the menu because the restaurants were getting requests and her reputation grew. She didn't want just vegan food, she wanted good tasting vegan food. She did her own manufacturing for a while, but went to outsourced production so she could spend her time designing new dishes rather than running a plant, as she puts it, "staring at spreadsheets and asking men for money". Now she is back to her roots, feeding people.

Fernweh (fern' way) is a German word that means a very, very strong desire to explore and experience places you haven't been to. With a background in hospitality, Ashley Lance was really groomed to help people who liked to backpack responsibly and have good meals along the way. Originally a side hustle, Ashley began making her own trail meals of dehydrated foods that were locally sourced and responsibly packaged. She was most distressed at the garbage she would encounter at trailheads and decided she could do better. In addition to the reduced packaging, Ashley also wanted to take advantage of the all the fresh, good local food available and so acquires fresh fruit and vegetables and dehydrates them at the peak of their flavor. Her company also gets the "seconds" - the ugly, but still tasteful and healthy foods - and prepares them for packaging.

In some aspect of the food business since she was 12, Jami Curl and a friend were deciding what to do after college. In Ohio at the time, they read that Portland, Oregon was a place for coffee, beer and books, which appealed to her. She got a marketing background in some non-food jobs, and was baking cakes in her spare time. Jami then found her passion in baking and started looking for a space to bake for the public. She found it and opened up St. Cupcake, which took people by storm. Not prepared for the success, Jami pretty much played every day by ear, baking for the people who showed up and having the front of the store handled by her friend. The company expanded quickly and got to 40 employees and multiple locations. She also decided to expand into candy and that evolved into a candy shop. And that expanded into e-commerce and building a national brand, including the authoring of a book. A divorce and other stresses made Jami decide to simply close St. Cupcake. It was an emotional, not rational decision and indeed turned out to be a learning experience, because six months later, a person came forward wanting to buy the company and reopen it. It's still operating today as a testimonial to the great brand she created.

Great Drinks. No Bullsh*t. is the headline on their website, and Genevieve Brazelton, founder reflects the serious "whiskey drinking friends" for whom she began developing her bitters. At this lockdown time, liquor store sales are up and this has led to a solid increase in sales for The Bitter Housewife. In addition to the bitters in the traditional bottles that add a dash to cocktails, the company has non-alcoholic bitters and soda drinks. In real life, Genevieve is definitely not a bitter person, and not even a housewife. But while writing a blog, became intrigued with the idea of creating and selling bitters with her husband. They did a search, found the name "Bitter Housewife" and snagged it. For those not familiar with the category, bitters are an extract, similar to vanilla. The purpose is to harmonize a drink; to blend the tartness of lemon, the sweetness of sugar or other additions to the liquor in the cocktail. Just like you would add basil to tomato soup.

Author and CEO of Urban Cheese Craft, Claudia Lucerno is enjoying families being housebound right now, because they're looking for projects and making delicious dairy and non-dairy cheese is in demand. Both food preparation and preservation are meditative processes that the entire family can participate doing. And children especially enjoy making something that is their creation and an edible one at that! Our own Sarah Masoni also made some French cheeses while in Tillamook, Oregon and understands the process of culture to curd. Growing up in urban, high density areas, Claudia always had a desire to be able to sample more rural experiences and the idea of making cheese in an apartment or condo always appealed to her. It's all tied to the fermentation movement, to help prevent waste and promote self-sustenance.

Salumi is Italian for deli meats. And Coro is Italian for chorus. Put 'em together and have Coro, a restaurant and deli offering the most fabulous cured meats. Using the old world methods, new world thinking and new world spices, Martinique Grigg and Clara Veniard picked up the tradition in Seattle begun by Armandino and Marilyn Batali and have grown it to the stellar establishment it has become. Part of the incentive was to show that two women and also mothers could start and grow a specialty food business, and they have succeeded. Their philosophy is that good food is what we live for and they have done so much to share that philosophy with others. Salumi is an art, not a science. It is practiced differently in different parts of Italy, and the founder Armandino learned his technique from a certain area in Italy and brought it to Seattle. In taking over the business, Martinique and Clara were nervous about changing an institution without losing the magic that made it famous, but gradually they learned the formula for keeping a beloved name alive while updating it and keeping it going.

Operating from their homes like the rest of the planet, Sarah and Sarah do a special show dedicated to exploring the current pandemic situation and the aftermath when COVID-19 is contained. Already, grocery stores are open, but six-foot markers on the floors and even the sidewalks outside are becoming standard. Cornell University's Risk Management List has put together the contemporary "Bible" for food processing. Number one is, no surprise, hand sanitizing for all. That means units at all entrances, exits and transition areas. Gloves are a great safety item, whether working in a plant or going shopping. You CAN wash and re-use them if you're careful. And when you go shopping, better to use a phone app or credit card than money that's been circulated. Bleach needs to be used correctly; remember it's concentrated and needs to be diluted. PH strips can be used to test the water to check the balance. For those with food products, shipping has changed. Sarah Marshall says curbside drop off is becoming common when picking up supplies, no more going into the warehouse. And there are are supply problems, too. Some producers can't get certain ingredients, so Sarah Masoni recommends change your recipe and produce anyway. The product may not be exactly the same, but your fans will understand.

Christine and Michael Leoniak bring health and wellness into great tasting food. Their daughter had eczema growing up and Christine and Michael sought to cure it through food. They did. And that quest meant a lot of trial and error but ended in complete success. The family went from a healthy diet to an "extremely", and limited, diet. The balance between pure nutrition and sanity (good taste) was very difficult. But getting a dehydrator was a start and led to the AH-HA moment they could create a beautiful and delicious food additive that could serve the planet. Calling their products synergistic, they have figured how to take a wet vegetable to a dry vegetable and help people put a nutritious meal on the table, especially when there is so little actual cooking, but more assembling and serving. Parents can get the veggies into their kids' diet by making their mac 'n cheese tasted delicious with their additive. And several heart patients swear that having Oomph Cooking Blends are how they can have a great tasting meal and stay on track with their stringent diet. And because a pinch of Oomph adds so much flavor, their products have actually been getting people to do more cooking and less assembling.

Who can't love honeybees? Andrea Wade loves the little, hard-working creatures who produce the most natural sweetener in the world. They form the basic ingredient in her all natural, low-sugar syrups that produce some of the best lemonade you ever tasted, and give you other fruit flavors for refreshing drinks or flavor additions to your dishes. Put them in sparkling water for a drink, or on top of ice cream or cheese cake for a delight. Andrea also put the same thoughtfulness and care into the packaging. Side by side, her syrups hold their own against the best Italian syrups around. In the beginning, Andrea took her drinks to a local Portland, Oregon street fair at an up and coming part of town. She went through 342 drinks in one day with her three existing flavors. This was the impetus to start her company and in only five months, she got into Market of Choice, a Eugene, Oregon grocer that supports local products and companies. She jumped right into 11 stores, and although it was a tremendous amount of work, she recruited her family into helping and made it. She has since increased her distribution to more grocery stores and a few bars as well.

Amazi is a Ugandan name, meaning water. Water is used to grow things, and Amazi is a company that wants to grow. Get it? But why Uganda? Renee Dunn spent a lot of time in the country and after returning to the US, wanted to source food product from Uganda and sell in the US to raise economy and awareness in Uganda. Renee is a big proponent of ethical sourcing and international trade. The dried fruit snacks she produces masquerade the fact Amazi is a social enterprise, Renee jokes, but she also is passionate about clean living, including diet. A fact backed up by the fact she was managing a yoga studio before venturing into food. And she continues to live a well-rounded healthy life, coaching at a strength and conditioning gym. But back to Uganda. It's a country that produces a large amount of organic produce - second in the world. And it has some of the most amazing fruit Renee has ever encountered. Now to introduce it to the world.

Ruby Jewel is an ice cream sandwich you can't describe in audio, it's that good. Lisa Herlinger (hard "G") is an OSU Food Innovation Center grad and started in the Food 101 program. She had always adored ice cream but didn't know how to produce it. The first season was spent selling her ice cream sandwiches at Portland's Farmers' Market. With a culinary background and experience in restaurants, Lisa had a pedigree but realized there was a lot of science involved to produce the premium brand she envisioned. Going to full production has kept Lisa from creating as many different flavors as she did when she sold in small batches, but she has started a second production place where small batches of inventive flavors can be made. Her ice cream is made from local ingredients and so they keep their farm to table philosophy in tact. Ruby Jewel has been experimenting in Malls with mixed results, but shows the company's desire to keep experimenting with its unique marketing program. That's the ice cream part. Now to the cookie part that makes it a sandwich. Not so easy to produce either. The cookie has to be consistent in diameter to package and has to be the right thickness so there's plenty of ice cream in the middle. And it can't get squishy either, it has to start out crispy when being eaten. That has been an experiment as well but now the recipe and production are under control.

Hannah Catherine Kullenberg - if you are looking for her digitally - is a holistic brand maker, consultant, new product launcher and more. Her first startup company was a bean company and all that experience is now for hire to other founders. She starts with the obvious questions of her clients, "What is your ultimate dream?". She has partnered with some of her clients in the past, but now sticks with her consulting and advising skills, doing more active marketing and sales. Hannah had gone through a food program at Portland Community College, a program her father went through at the same time! She met our host Sarah Masoni during the program when she was a junior in college. She and her father grew the Better Bean company and eventually sold it, so Hannah has seen the full cycle of entrepreneurship.

"The Joy of Cooking" is as close to the second Bible as it gets. Megan Scott met the grandson of the book's family business when she asked him out! The eventually married and even though her husband did not want to take over the family business, Megan got "sucked into it" as she says. Megan's background is baking, and she has added that emphasis in the recent updates of the book. It's a living document, as "Joy" continually keeps up with new ideas, new fusions and changing tastes. And it's a true cookbook, rugged and able to be packed around kitchen to kitchen, sitting upright while cooks read recipes while they assemble and create meals. Plus, it is about recipes, ingredients and directions, not pictures. After all, it's about cooking, not looking.

New Jersey startup founder Jessica Craig is just now launching her seltzer soft drink, balsamic flavor infused beverage company. If you think coming up with the recipe was hard, it evidently wasn't as difficult as coming up with the name. But when they came up with Tarta, Jessica's husband goes into his "Sparta" yell! Coming from the health industry, Jessica became a Mom and decided her children would be raised on a healthy diet and set them for life. However, birthday parties, advertising, social settings and other distractions pushed them to have a "normal" diet, including drinking Sprite. So, experimenting in her kitchen, one day she found the healthy drink her children liked as much as the soda pop, and knew she was on to something. At the Fancy Food show in New York, Jessica met a bunch of Oregon people (including our host!) and that got her out to the Oregon State University Food Innovation Center, where she and Sarah Masoni gave birth to yet another meaningful food for the planet.

The word "Delicatessen" just isn't used enough, shorted to "Deli" and just doesn't give the importance to its original namesake. That's how Lisa Tran feels, and that's why the Tan Tan Cafe and Delicatessen is different. They make their own hams, meatballs and pates, so they are the REAL DEAL. A family operation, Lisa's parents have stayed in the same Beaverton, Oregon location for 21 years now. Tan Tan is Vietnamese for "new beginning". And it certainly is. Lisa was born in a refugee camp in Indonesia and landed in Beaverton in 1981. After building their life, her father was laid off from Boeing, her mother retired from Nike, and with some recipes from an uncle in Canada, they decided to launch the business. Open everyday, the family delights an amazingly loyal following, all by word of mouth. A fabulous adventure.

When Matt Sutherland cooked in kitchens, he was nicknamed "Hoss" for his physical presence (Hoss was a character in the TV show "Bonanza" for all you youngsters). He decided when he and Catherine started their sauce company that he would pare the Hoss with Soss - and there you have it. Matt loves to teach others to cook as well. He teaches at the local Salem, Oregon high school, up on Oregon's Mount Hood and in Costa Rica, so he is amazing at spreading the word about good food. And Costa Rica has become a home, where he and Catherine offer a retreat for a dozen people to visit local food producers in a tropical paradise. Cheese, chocolate and pepper farms are the lure and Hoss Soss promises it is a lifetime memory. But let's talk about the sauce, or should we say Soss. Whether you need a soup base, want to spice up your tacos, noodles or leftover pizza, there are three flavors that bring both flavor and heat to all your foods.

In her late teens Josie Johnson experience a plethora of health issues that escaped the diagnosis of many doctors until Josie saw a homeopathic doctor who isolated a food allergy: Gluten. Next step, be gluten-free! But after that, how to make truly delicious, truly gluten-free food for the world? Josie decided the best way was to offer gluten-free mixes for people to cook up their own food. That direction came from the fact that she and her husband have children and one of the favorite family activities is around pancakes in the morning. The aroma, the warmth and the gathering were what she wanted to recreate for others. It took recipe iterations galore but she persisted until she reached perfection. The company has increased its product line and figured out how to move into the co-packing world to increase volume. But they also have been able to remain a family company for now, including Josie's father.

Jenn Toplif was baking with her daughter at her parents house years ago. Her parents were in the food business when Jenn told her Mom she was going to get ingredients for chocolate chip cookies, her Mom commented, "That's SO pedestrian. Why don't you do something more interesting like macaroons?". It was seven years of perfecting the recipe of gluten-free macaroons, but after heart-to-heart talks, she and her husband agreed for Jenn to quit her graphic design business, go to one income and take the family down the path of ROONS. With her background in graphic design in lots of food packaging, naturally ROONS pop out on the grocery store shelf. Her ROONS have a shelf life of a couple of months and can be frozen for a long time. And they pare with absolutely every wine. Available on the east coast and the west coast as well as online, ROONS are starting to get big traction as corporate gifts.

Jeannine Mills just decided to jump into a pool of jam, sink or swim. Living in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, Jeannine realized there was a plethora of fresh fruit, wine and alcohol brewing and put them all together. She's gone from the kitchen to co-packing but is now on a mission to build a radical new kitchen in the mid-range co-packing area - brand new. A combination of crowdfunding and private funding is behind the building of Gather Community Kitchen, which will be home to food and beverage development.

Growing up in Detroit, Lisa's Dad used to take her to the eastern market, where she had some of her fondest memories of the personal touch between people and the food they eat. She remembers the cheese munger who would hand slice a piece of cheese and hand it to her. And the fresh grapefruit and the glassed in butcher shop at the center of the market. It made an impression. Although she started college aiming to be a large animal veterinarian, a stint running the salad bar of the commissary sent her to a culinary school where she excelled in Chicago. She then worked for a grocery chain bought by Whole Foods, continued with Whole Foods and wound up at New Seasons. Starting Green Zebra Grocery has been interesting to say the least. Lisa believe in building community outside the store and inside. Treating employees well is part of her philosophy and that hasn't played well with investors. They see a smaller profit margin where Lisa sees a solid company in the long run. But she has learned a kernel of truth from the cheesemonger, the grapefruit supplier and the butcher from her youth that authentic is here to stay.

Yana Yakhens started out at a baking company in Portland, Oregon, but always wanted to break out on her own. She had been experimenting with chocolate for some time and loved it for its qualities as well as the taste. The fat and oils help it maintain its taste through processing and makes it a favorite for food product developers. Her first idea was the HeartBreaker that she produced for Valentine's Day. Along with the chocolate heart, the package contains a hammer made by her husband - a true family affair - that the recipient uses to smash open the heart. A true "hustle" and reflective of Yana's entrepreneurial spirit. But custom products like that can't get a business to volume, so the company's main business is unusual chocolate bars. "Rosemary and ginger walk into a bar" is a great example of a unique combination of flavors, a great name and hand-crafted looking packaging for the bar that Only Child offers. "There's so much joy around us in life" Yana says, and her chocolate bars show that and offer her philosophy to those who enjoy her bars.

Pure nut butter and delicious. Gluten free, no processed sugar and no peanuts, cashew and almond nuts only - not an easy task. But Julie and Carolyn slaved in the kitchen experimenting, getting friends and family taste testing until the first recipes were developed. And the variety of flavored nut butters is impressive, including lavender honey. And now they're authors, having just finished their first cookbook using their unique nut butters in such delights as fudgey nut brownies. But beyond the delicious nut butters and a business that functions, there is a mission here: Changing the lives of women. Ground Up Nut Butter deliberately seeks to offer employment to women of all backgrounds, to teach them skills and confidence to create a better life for themselves. GUNB is a stepping stone to different employment, and more importantly, a place where women get their chance at bat. Good business, good intentions, good world.

Growing up in China, Qian Deng started as a biological engineer, working on fermentation that utilized e coli! Of course, that' a four-letter word in the food world, but in pharmaceutical research, it's pretty routine. But food science had a bigger appeal to Qian and the fermentation of both baking bread and making soy sauce became much more interesting to her. And creating foods with extra antioxidants became a focus for her. When she applied for grad school, it was to be a food science major and she was accepted to study in the US at Oregon State University. She currently works for a company located in The Dalles, Oregon, which has a river location, good co-packing facilities and warehousing as well. Using natural food extracts to put healing ingredients, they have created new scents and tastes with nutrients and healing traits not found in other additives. The company was sold some time ago, and that allows the PowderPure products to spread around the world.

Blossom vinegars are culinary vinegars and mixers for soda water and cocktails. The vinegars are for salads and additions, the mixers are a new generation. No added sugar makes the mixers stand out on the shelf. But people need recipes, and when Connie Rawlings Dristas recognized that, it turned things in an upward direction for the company. A mentor to other budding food entrepreneurs, including our own Sarah Marshall, Connie has inspired others while she inspires herself. And her inspiration came from a milestone birthday where she took a long look at her diet lifestyle and the long-life history of her family. So she changed her diet on a dime, started eating differently - especially salad dressing - and started figuring out what really made vinegar and how could the flavors be altered.

The Ryan family started their business out of necessity. Julie Ueland of Ryan's Juice recounts the story of how David Ryan began the company. David Ryan's father died suddenly when David was 15, and the family had a farm that grew a lot of apples. A doctor had given David's mother an apple pressing machine and she started making cider. The children sold it door-to-door, unpasteurized. When the mother was in Portland, Oregon delivering cider when she was hit and killed. It took amazing courage to turn the tragedy into triumph, but the older sister got custody of the siblings and they stayed together. David was the salesperson and pushed the sales regionally. A relationship with Costco mushroomed sales, and when that ended, the company went to tankers delivering ingredients that are as close to fresh pressed as it can possibly be. Julie Uleand's role at Ryan's is "Pluto". Not the dog, the planet - or not a planet? That's the point; Julie does whatever needs to be done to keep things moving at the company. Maybe "Utility Infielder" is better?

In the beginning of her food journey, Laura Taylor has produced plant based meal accompaniments that are colorful, tasteful and mimic their mainstream counterparts beautifully. They are, as the website says, "mindful alternatives" to processed sauces, salad dressings and sweet additives. Even though the company is young, Laura's branding and organization for her distributors and retailers is way ahead of the curve. Her previous employment in the food industry prepared her well. And how did it start? After giving birth and taking some time off, Laura decided she wanted a food product that reflected a reverence for good nutrition and good taste. And since her husband was getting an MBA at the same time, they made the new company his capstone project, where they could run financials and business plan in academia before implementing in the real world.

Katie McCarron's son had just graduated from college and jumped in to help the family business get started the first year. The background story: The family's dog, Rosie, was 14 at the time, and had started to go downhill, losing weight and energy. Katie started doing some research and began creating Rosie's food at home. Rosie began a remarkable recovery, gaining weight, getting stronger and living to a ripe old 16 1/2. It's a real family affair; daughter handles marketing, son is a resident physician but helps with the nutrition development in new products, and husband, also a physician, works on distribution and fundraising. Now in over 800 stores, the popularity is because Portland Pet Food uses natural and wholesome ingredients and has been able to package the food without cooking it to temperatures that destroy the nutrients.

Starting as a fisheries research biologist Idaho, Judy Goodman was a big outdoors person. Going on a hike with some friends, she took her homemade energy bars with her and her friends told her she had a dynamite breakfast bar recipe. Since it was the 80's and breakfast bars were only beginning to be accepted, Judy was ahead of the curve with her backpacker superbars. She made those for years, then moved to Joseph, Oregon and trained as a chocolatier. The owner of the shop encouraged Judy to come up with some energy bars since the area got a lot of backpackers. She got started producing bars, left for another job, then was told by the original owner there was tremendous demand for her bars and so it began. Judy got her production kitchen going and now the company is still headquartered in beautiful Joseph.

Not originally a food guy, Michael Pan began his professional career as an engineer at Motorola. It taught him teamwork and controls to business, a great foundation for founding his company. While visiting family in Malaysia, his cousin gave him a bowl of delicious food that Michael thought was a dried pork product. When told that the dish was actually a vegetarian food that fit with his religion and diet, Michael was amazed at the texture as well as the look and taste. Using shitake mushrooms, their daily production is created with care and pride. By sharing the recipe with people in America, he is carrying on the family tradition of plant based and vegan eating. But it didn't happen overnight. It has taken years to bootstrap the company. Initially, his cousin would make the product in Malaysia and Michael imported and sold it. Moving to US production to Portland, Oregon in 2018, Pan's has moved from a shared kitchen to building their own kitchen and really taking off.

Named after her two grandfathers, Jacoba Gundle co-founded Mindful Proteins to produce a line of high-protein foods and beverages using clean ingredients. Sounds like a lofty goal? Well, it is, but their first product, restore is a protein water. Beautifully packaged, this original idea was inspired by Jacoba's enthusiastic exercise and yoga regimen. Getting protein in the body within 45 minutes of exercise, she had tried other powders but they had sugar and artificial ingredients that she did not care to ingest. Also a believer in sustainability, Mindful Proteins pays attention to their packaging as well as sourcing locally for their ingredients.
